A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This little book, the first of ourS eries of A rithmetics, presupposes no knowledge of numbers whatever. It tries to give a correct idea of their value, both absolute and relative, by treating them concretely as well as abstractly from the very outset, pictorial illustrations being freely used for that purpose. We have not sought in its pages to goar, but to go thoroughly. It is therefore confined to the four fimdamental operations, a very brief view of fractions, the most important tables of moneys, weights, and measures, and easy exercises under them. These subjects, it is believed, are so treated, as to make the young pupil think for himself, and to lay the right kind of foundation for a mathematical course. One thing is taught at a time, and great care has been taken to present every thing in its proper place. It will be observed that throughout the book slate exercises go hand in hand with mental operations. In the authors opinion, they are mdispensable, from the first, for inspiring the beginner with that interest in the subject which is essential to success. This book imposes no labor on the teacher, in the way of explaining orally, setting sums, c. It is thought to contain in itself all that is needed. The author would only ask those who use it to be sure that every lesson is thoroughly mastered, before proceeding to the next. Each principle presented, each table, should be perfectly understood and memorized before leaving it, even though it be necessary to repeat the lesson again and again. Time saved by allowing a single lesson to pass unmastered, will be a tenfold loss in the end. Entered, according to A ct of Congress, in the year 1868, by D. APPLETON CO., In the Clerk sO ffice of theD istrict Coart of the United States for theB oathern District of New York.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
